Across the Buildings

Developer / Owner: King’s Cross Central Limited Partnership

Consultant: Felice Varini

Felice Varini’s first major commission in England and the third artwork delivered as part of RELAY, the dedicated art programme at King’s Cross, this installation saw enormous geometric shapes overlaid onto the facades of the distinctive heritage buildings at King’s Cross, creating a work of art which spanned nine buildings and structures on the site. The shapes appeared randomly placed on the front of buildings however from a single, specific point (a raised viewing platform) visitors could see the shapes unified, forming one continuous pattern.
